The dangerous drug lawyers at d’Oliveira & Associates currently are seeking clients who have had a blood clot related injury while taking the birth control pills Yaz or Yasmin (drospirenone). d’Oliveira is offering a “no win, no fee promise” to these individuals and their families; meaning that they will not have to pay unless a settlement is successfully negotiated or the case is won at trial.

Yaz and Yasmin are a form of birth control pills known as combined oral contraceptives, containing the synthetic hormone drospirenone. In 2008 and 2009, the Yaz formulation of drospirenone was the United State’s best selling birth control pill. Advertisements for Yaz also included vague promises of reducing other physical symptoms of menstruation.

A safety announcement by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) released in April 2012 stated that the FDA had concluded that drugs containing drospirenone, the active drug in the birth control pills Yaz and Yasmin, “may be associated with a higher risk for blood clots than other progestin containing pills.” The alert went on to state that certain studies had reported that the risk for blood clots with drugs containing drospirenone may be as high as three times that of other birth control pills. To help protect the rights of individuals who may have suffered injuries because of blood clots while taking Yaz or Yasmin, d’Oliveira & Associates has offered its no win, no fee guarantee. Individuals who choose to hire d’Oliveira & Associates will be charged no fee unless they recover monetary damages, such as through a settlement or judgment.
